Mineral Makeup News : Aromaleigh’s En Pointe Collection

Inspired by ballet, Aromaleigh Mineral Makeup comes up with a really romantic, yet colorful eye makeup collection :

This is a gathering of lush shades, not just the expected ballet pink. For me, ballet is dramatic, emotional, and full of tragic beauty. With almost 20 years of ballet study, I watch not only dreaming that I could be on the stage, but knowing the iron strength and control that the most ethereal, graceful dancer must have.

“En Pointe” has a little bit of everything… plush matte shades with graceful iridescent highlights, a brilliant shimmering black and white that can make any color into whatever you imagine, and some lovely frosts with multi-faceted effects. Most of this year’s collections have been straight frosts with vivid sparkling highlights, but this collection is more understated while still being full of mystery and transient beauty.

The photos of these colors barely touch what they truly are like in person…

The color descriptions, from the Aromaleigh website, are as follows,

Odile: A deep and mysterious smooth, lush mauve sheen with iridescent shine of green and blue and earthy undertones. (Smooth frost)

Pirouette: Soft peachy pink plush matte base with hazy blue iridescence. So pretty! (Sheen)

Dulcinea: Rich warm purple plush matte base with unexpected smooth green iridescent highlight. (Sheen)

Serenade: A color inspired by my favorite ballet. Beautiful smooth teal plush matte base with a lush violet iridescent highlight. (Sheen)

Calliope: As lovely as the muse herself, this is a go-to color. A soft plush matte base beholds softly shimmering beige and lilac tones. (Sheen, slight shimmer)

Giselle: A sweet and softly shimmering plush tea rose matte base enhanced with a delicate pink and gold highlight. As precious as the beautiful Giselle. (Sheen)

Waltz: A soft pale green plush matte base with a mysterious blue-green highlight tone. Use wet or over base for more drama! (Sheen, slight shimmer)

Coppelia: A lovely berried plum plush matte base with a dimensional smooth violet highlight. (Sheen)

Aurora: A pinky-beige plush matte base scattered with tiny shimmers of blue and pink. Fit for a princess. (Sheen, slight shimmer)

Myrtha: The rich deep blue green of night with an earthy base. Gorgeous dramatic blue-green highlight shimmer. Apply went for high drama, dry for softer effect. Plush matte base with sheen highlight.

Pavane: A fascinating dimensional cocoa shade. Shimmers travel from pink to gold to blue to green. Ethereal. (Sheen with sparkle)

Elegie: A dark dose of shimmering jewels. Add to other shades to deepen and dramatize, use wet-lined or all-over for a magnificent, glimmering smokey eye.

Piqué: A lovely mauved purply brown with light-changing lustre, travels from purply-blue to blue-green. (Sheen)

Clara: Festive warm purple with a twist… an unexpected smokey base and a sweet blue and pink traveling iridescent highlight. (Frost)

Promenade: Romantic violet plush matte base with an intriguing blue-violet iridescent highlight. (Sheen)

They remind me of spring colors, just a bit more vivid. I think these shades are very very wearable, and I’m excited to get my hands on them. How about you, how do you find Aromaleight’s En Pointe Collection?
